Achillea millefolium 'Pink Grapefruit' is a new and stunning variety of Yarrow, with masses of long-lasting clusters above aromatic, ferny foliage. Your borders and containers will be awash with an ever-changing tapestry of colour from June to October.Achillea millefolium 'Pink Grapefruit' produces huge, dark pink, plate-like flowerheads, each formed by masses of tiny blooms, which cut horizontally through your borders. Maturing to a soft creamy pink, the flowers are an often-welcome contrast to the more usual rounded or spiked flower shapes. Excellent as cut stems for the vase in fresh arrangements and dried for alternative creations.Known as 'Soldiers Wound Wart' after Achilles reputedly used it to heal his soldier's wounds after the siege of Troy. Historically, Achillea has been used for many complaints from nose bleeds to thrombosis. Achillea are both rabbit and slug resistant and the nectar-rich blooms are much loved by bees and butterflies. Not fussy on soil conditions if the soil is well-drained, Achillea are happy in sun or partial shade. Being herbaceous, fully hardy perennials, they will thrive outside for you to enjoy for years to come with no winter protection required. Dying back in winter they will sprout again in spring
